Happy Friday, happy long weekend!
Today’s photo is looking south east at the corner of Pitt and Ferry. This was taken during a visit to Windsor by Prime Minister John Diefenbaker. The caption to the photo reads as follows:
On the same tour, the PM dropped in on mayor Michael J. Patrick for a surprise visit at the “new $1,790,000 city hall, not yet furnished”, he was particularly attracted to the “functional council chambers”.
Have a great long weekend everyone! Remember, no post Monday for the holiday, see you back here Wednesday.

windsor: we don't trim lower branches for some reason
Now that the Paul Martin Building is for sale, maybe that parking lot can be returned to a more pedestrian friendly streetscape.
Don't you mean, "Now that the Paul Martin Building is for sale, maybe that parking lot can be extended to the rest of the block." ?
I don't think negative thinking really helps the outcome. If you think the parking lot should be converted to housing or offices or retail or a park or whatever, it's time to get political (dirty word!!!!) and attempt to influence these decisions when they are being made.
